The DC Doggie Happy Hour Group

"I am new to the area, and am looking for a fun place to hang out with my puppy. We were spoiled by the free, off-leash dog parks in our last city, so we are looking for a fun, safe place to meet other dogs and owners here in DC. "

"Hey! I'd love to join you guys now and then --don't have many dog friends at all, so this would be great! "

"Hello, We are David & Lucy. Our small terrier mix Gaby is a rescue from WHS. We've had her since late Jan. of this year and really want to get her socialized. She's great with dogs off leash, needs to work on her on-leash behavior.Can't wait!"

"Hi. I'm in Columbia Heights with a lab and a border collie mix."

"Hi! Columbia Heights couple here with a 14-week old Boston Terrier named Taggart (Tag). "

"Hi, I'm John. My partner Jamie and I would be very interested in mixed (people-dog) socializing."

"Hello, I wanted to let the group know about a new pet magazine. We are running a website-only special for small, reputable pet-related businesses. Magazine is distributed online nationally and internationally. Thanks, Kim "

"I'm an avid dog lover and volunteer every Saturday at a no-kill shelter which is where I get my doggie fix since I don't have one of my own. I also foster and also dog sit. Looking forward to meeting all the dogs (oh, and the people)!"

"My name is Ellen, and I have a 4 month old goldendoodle. "

"I live in Capitol Hill, but still don't know any area dog owners/lovers. Am looking to meet some great people, and get Gonzo some doggie-friends! He's not used to being around other dogs, but he tends to be a social butterfly w/people!"

"Hi! Marley and I moved here about a year ago. Looking to make new friends in the area. Marley is afraid of his own shadow. He could use a few new friends as well."

"Hi Marina. I see that we are neighbors. I live in North Bethesda near Strathmore Music Center. What was the doggy get together like this past Saturday? I had planned to attend but my plans changed. Aren't dogs the best people! Dan "
